Lithograph on paper // Joe Tilson’s Mnemonic Device (1975) is a striking lithograph that fuses conceptual art with visual poetry. The composition, a circular diagram, integrates symbols, words, and images to explore themes of time, nature, and the classical elements: fire, earth, air, and water. Surrounding the diagram are notations referencing seasons, ancient alphabets, and mythological associations, creating a dynamic interplay between textual and visual elements. Tilson draws inspiration from ancient cosmology and cultural archetypes, presenting a multi-layered work that invites reflection on the interconnectedness of natural cycles and human understanding. The limited-edition print measures 104 x 74.5 cm and showcases Tilson’s mastery of graphic design and his affinity for blending modernist aesthetics with esoteric knowledge.
